Not anymore via the right-mouse-button by selecting an application in the menu, nor by right-mouse-button selection on the panel (there is no menu there anymore). Why has this disappeared? The Unity interface is REALLY not user-friendly for people that need their computer to work instead of playing games and tweaking wobbling windows.
